The difference of a number x and 4 is 3
Kruka [31]
"the difference of a number x and 4": x - 4
"is": =
"3": 3

Combine the terms so that it looks like the sentence numerically:

"the difference of a number x and 4 is 3": x - 3 = 4

x - 3 = 4 is your answer.

To solve for x:

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Add 3 to both sides.

x - 3 = 4

x -3 (-3) = 4 (-3)

x = 4 - 3

x = 1

1 is your answer for x.

Encuentra la pendiente de la recta formada por los puntos A( 3 , -2 ) Y B( -5 , 3 )
QveST [7]

Answer:

\frac{5}{-8} or -0.625

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is as shown:

m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1}}

We can have A = (x_{1},y_{1}) and B = (x_{2},y_{2}).

We can hence plug in the values into the formula to get m=\frac{3-(-2)}{-5-3}.

As we simplify, the negatives on the top row cancel out to give us an addition sign instead and we add them.

m=\frac{5}{-8}

Brainliest would be appreciated!

Explain how multiplying with 6 is like multiplying with 3.
Debora [2.8K]
Multiplying with 6 is like multiplying with 3 because, you just double it. Let's say 3 × 4 = 12
